    Dreamy Holbox

    February 21, 2020 in Mexico ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C

    Met up with Lauren to have a girls weekend in the dreamy island of Holbox, 3 hours north of Cancun where no cars are allowed and there’s no cell service. Just bicycles and golf carts, and long stretches of sandy beach with warm turquoise water. Turns out all those Instagram photos don’t lie, this place really is beautiful. Relaxed and quiet, this place is a nice break from the real world. Plus there are even a few lizards and raccoons cruising around.

    We spent the first day biking around the island, walking along the massive sand bar, and doing a drink and snack crawl to 5 different hip bars and restaurants. Ended the night catching a local Carnival celebration of the king and queen of Holbox Carnival dancing to a drum line-esque band. Not really sure what was happening but still fun to see.

    Only downside here are the prices. The island definitely knows it’s an island paradise so the prices are set as such.
